From Collina Strada to Eckhaus Latta: J.Crew's Iconic Rollneck Just Got Reimagined by Emerging New York Designers

When I got my first-ever J.Crew Rollneck last fall, I couldn't take it off for days. I instantly fell in love with it and wore it on repeat. When I heard that some of my favorite emerging New York designers were reimagining it, I was beyond excited to see what they'd come up with.
For the first time ever, J.Crew is reinterpreting its iconic Rollneck during New York Fashion Week, collaborating with Buci, Collina Strada, Eckhaus Latta, Patrick Taylor, and Tanner Fletcher.
"We consider the Rollneck an icon at J.Crew," Olympia Gayot, creative director and head of design at J.Crew, shared in a press release. "It represents everything the brand stands for: quality, versatility, and an unpretentious ease. It is built to last and designed to look good on everyone. It is the perfect blank canvas for creative reinterpretation."
Starting today, February 12, the limited-edition collection is available for purchase online and exclusively at an immersive pop-up experience, and all styles are priced at $180.
It hasn't even been 24 hours, and the Eckhaus Latta Rollneck is already out of stock, and Collina Strada's version is on its way. If that's any indication, this capsule is going to sell out quickly.
Shop Buci's Rollneck
Founded by Mishka Ivanovic, Buci designs with ease, mindfulness, and timeless romance in mind. For her Rollneck, Ivanovic went for an elegant neckline and statement low back.
Shop Collina Strada's Rollneck
Hillary Taymour's Collina Strada is known for its uninhibited, expressive, and colorful collections. For the Rollneck, she combines contrasting lace and layered textures in a soft pale pink.
Shop Eckhaus Latta's Rollneck
Mike Eckhaus and Zoe Latta are known for their artful approach to fashion, constantly challenging traditional knitwear forms. Focused on craftsmanship and conceptual design, their Rollneck features the brand's signature stitch work and color blocking.
Shop Patrick Taylor's Rollneck
Inspired by sailing and sports, Patrick Taylor's eponymous brand carries a nostalgic quality. For J.Crew, he brought that same sensibility to the Rollneck with subtle nautical references.
Shop Tanner Fletcher's Rollneck
Tanner Richie and Fletcher Kasell are known for blurring the lines between masculinity and femininity. When reimagining the Rollneck, they created a sailor-inspired piece featuring a cute flap tie.
